Mini Cori-Flow Sensor Measures Low Flow Rates

Bronkhorst Cori-Tech has released a new model in its series of compact Coriolis Mass Flow Meters/Controllers for accurate measurement and control of low flow rates. The Mini Cori-Flow M12 instruments are suitable for measurement and control for liquid-flow and gas-flow applications. The design of the miniature Coriolis sensor is said to feature superior response time and high accuracy, irrespective of changing operating conditions with regard to pressure, temperature, density, conductivity and viscosity.

The effective turndown is no less than 1000:1, with easy, onsite possibility for the user to re-range the instrument to their requirements. The Mini Cori-flow has a IP65 weatherproof housing and is available with approval for use in hazardous areas. The instruments offer integrated PID control and close-coupled control valves or pumps, constituting very compact Coriolis mass-flow control loops.

Mini Cori-flow features state-of-the-art digital technology, offering standard analogue and RS-232 communication, optional fieldbus interfaces and additional functions such as alarms, totaliser (to measure fluid consumption) and batch dosing. Both fluid temperature and density are available as secondary digital outputs. Typical applications include research laboratories, food and pharmaceutical industries, analytical installations, micro-reactors and anywhere requiring accurate, fluid-independent mass-flow measurement or dosage of very small flow rates.
